ONE

ONE is a Pershing motor yacht for guests who would rather spend their charter in the water than on passage. She was recently refitted, so the sharp, purposeful character the yard is known for comes with an interior ready to welcome you. Her particular gift in Greek waters is pace. An island that might take a slower yacht most of a day arrives comfortably before lunch. That leaves room for more anchorages, longer swims and unhurried evenings ashore, without the sense that the itinerary is chasing the clock.

Once she settles at anchor, her toys come out. The Seabob draws you beneath the surface with almost no effort, while the SeaDoo jet ski suits those who prefer their thrills above it. Adult water skis and a wakeboard keep the confident busy behind the tender. The SUP offers a gentler way to explore the shoreline. Snorkelling equipment turns any clear bay into an hour of drifting over rock and sand. Everyone can choose their own rhythm, whether that means an energetic morning or simply slipping off the stern for a swim.

Life aboard is relaxed and easy. In the salon a TV and stereo, with satellite TV and hookups for your own devices, make for a comfortable retreat after a day in the sun. Onboard Wi-Fi keeps you connected as much or as little as you wish. When the light softens, the BBQ comes into its own, and dinner can be taken at anchor with the sea calm around you. She suits a family or a group of friends who value comfort without formality.

A crewed charter in Greece is at its best when the details simply take care of themselves, and that is what her crew are there for. They handle the moorings, ready the toys and know when to let a lazy afternoon stretch a little longer. The Genius tender makes light work of trips ashore, whether for a taverna supper, a stroll through a harbour village or a beach only reachable by sea. Each day can take its own shape, guided by the weather and your mood.
